b) The source is peer-reviewed, academic research material.

c) The source consists of 12 researchers, each possessing a PhD in ecology or an ecology related field. The paper is organized to support the background knowledge of the research, the methods that show which experiments are being conducted, the results of each experiment, and a discussion of the research collected. Within each section are images, figures, and tables that are drawn from the data of 73 different academic sources. The article also acknowledges an editor named Peter Hans-Ulrich, who holds a PhD in ecology from the University of Jena in Germany. Additionally the article was uploaded to the National Library of Medicine, which is the world’s largest biomedical library and holds mainly peer-reviewed sources.
